A few of my favorite quotes from speakers at The Hive, the European blog conference, that I attended last weekend. As twitter was buzzing, I also added some interesting tweets, that spoke to me.
My overall highlights of the weekend in Berlin were the more personal conversations that I had with blogfriends, old and new. Sharing ideas & experiences with so many different people is empowering, inspiring and so much fun. Merci!

What a great way to sum it up. You are the best example for the first and the last quote. Period.
You make me blush, Lena!
Great post!
I love the way you made up the quotes. Good job!
Merci Zsuzsi!
What a great post! Love that you combined the photos and quotes to give a fabulous recap! Maybe you should lead a talk next year ;-)
Oh wow Elisa, that makes me blush!
I totally agree with Elisa!
Aww, so sweet! Merci Cindy!
What a great post! Beautiful combination of photos and meaningful text. I have to agree with the Elisa and Cindy – I think you have a lot you could teach people for the next HIVE.
Oh wow, that's so sweet! You all make me blush! I guess this is what happens when you love what you do :o) Merci Tochi!

Thanks Kate! We are now Pantone-mates, right? Got the mug on my desk here :o) Did you manage to bring home the chair?

Merci Geraldine. Hope to meet you in person again soon!

Merci Trixi!
Lovely photos. Nice re-cap:-) x
Gracias Tina!
We are! It was a bit cramped in the back of our car on the way home, but the chair made it with us. Might have to put in my new work space once we move…
Nice! You can always use an extra chair, especially in a workspace. Enjoy the weekend!
I absolutely love how you captured the essence of the Hive this year with your stylish photos and quotes. Lovely!
Thanks for your kind words Mandi!
Wat heb je dat gaaf gedaan, quotes verwerken in foto's! Prachtig Judith! En ik vond het erg leuk om je eens in real life te zien :)
Merci Stephanie! Erg leuk jou ook eindelijk 'ns in het echt te zien!
Hi Judith, Wat maak je er toch altijd weer een mooi verhaal van! Groetjes iris
Dankje Iris!
Wat een mooie post! De Hive was voor mij net te vroeg, ik ben nog niet zo lang blogger…maar krijg toch erg de indruk dat ik veel gemist heb! Fijn dat je het met mooie plaatjes en beste teksten samenvat, erg inspirerend!!
Ik ga nog ff verder lezen op je blog…ik bezoek Berlijn in het najaar en hoop het (net als Stockholm) op mijn blog uit te werken, dus als je nog tips hebt…graag!
Zelfs als je nog niet of pas kort blogt zijn blog conferenties super leerzaam en het is vooral zo leuk om allerlei nieuwe mensen te leren kennen, waaronder de mensen achter blogs die je zelf leest. Ik kan je zeker aanraden een keer te gaan! En er komt uiteraard nog een kleine Berlijn guide aan met mijn favoriete adresjes… :o) Deze week is het trouwens Berlijn week op http://petitepassport.com
Great sup up. Thanks for sharing this.
My pleasure, Ana!
Bedankt voor de tip, ik ben benieuwd naar je Berlijn guide!
Graag gedaan, komt eraan :o)
How nicely you summed it up ! And I agree – I think you'd be a great speaker for a future event. Groetjes, Rhiannon
Merci Rhiannon, that's so sweet :o) groetjes terug!
